Snooki Opens Up to Fans About Her Weight Loss Transformation Through the Years

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi got candid about her body transformation via Instagram, and discussed her fluctuating weight throughout the years.

“It's no secret that I've been struggling with my weight my whole life. From being completely unhealthy skinny growing up, to how the world met me — binge drinking/eating and the heaviest I've ever been — to NOW, being in the best physical shape of my life and stronger than I've ever been,” the Jersey Shore alum captioned a collage of her different body types.

She continued, “It wasn't an easy journey getting here, but it's all about hard [work] and dedication. I do it for my kids and I do it most importantly for myself. And I LOVE this life way more than my skinny/overweight days for sure! Strong is the new sexy.”

The mother-of-two concluded her inspirational post, “Someone commented how ‘insecure’ I am. I loved myself skinny, overweight and fit! [I] was always confident and loved my body. [The] point is, having lived in [three] different types of bodies — STRONG is the best one for me.”
